We’ve had a lot going on these first five months of the year. Take a quick look inside our new 50,000-square-foot prefabrication facility with John Miller.

This space is dedicated to material storage and off-site construction for one of our busiest clients.

We’re looking forward to sharing a lot more updates as this facility reaches full production capabilities.

Our safety team and project managers had a busy Construction Safety Week this year – visiting job sites while emphasizing several key topics: line of fire safety, lithium-ion battery safety, and sharing and discussing the many positive safety findings from our Site Safety Observations.

It’s just as important to focus on what crews are doing well, using positive reinforcement as a segway to build meaningful relationships with our workers.

A truly notable moment this week was hosting our representative from DiVal Safety Equipment, Inc., Todd Petek, along with a brand rep from FCL-X to give us a live demonstration and firsthand look at a new extinguishing agent designed to stop lithium-ion battery fires.

With most of our tools today being powered by lithium-ion batteries these days, our ops teams were glad to know there’s an agent capable of extinguishing such fires and preventing reignition.

Proud to keep our crews informed, protected, and moving projects forward safely.
